Hi all, I am in C1W1D5.. Many of you struggling out these and having great time building up your body will agree to the fact that, before this journey, there had been so many times we try a new diet / exercise plan but drop out for some reason or that other.. For more than 10 years, it had been...

I have done Body for Life before and saw really good results but am not seeing them this time around. I am a 36 yr old female that weighs 138lbs currently (which is about 10 lbs over what I normally am). I am on w9d1 and have seen no weight loss and minimal inches lost. I really want to tone up and lose...

HELP! I tore my LCL (not too horribly it seems) but this is obviously affecting my workout. I'm trying to alter my meal plans to be much less calorie intensive since I'm not able to work out as often or as intensely. I will still be doing cardio can't as intensely for at least 6 months...

I am just starting BFL and I'm wondering if anyone can relate to this problem and provide any tips. I have a job that requires eating out in restaurants rountinely (client lunches, dinners, traveling, etc). On almost every diet/program I've tried, this is always my undoing. Most of the time...

Hello All, I've done BFL off and on during the last 11 years with sometimes great results, and sometimes I didn't finish due to injuries/illness. I've been challenged in the past 10 years, having undergone 5 surgeries and having a child! The most recent surgery was major open heart surgery...

Whether your Thanksgiving meal is at noon or at night, always eat a healthy meal in the morning to avoid overeating later in the day. Try a bowl of oatmeal with raisins or an egg white omelet with veggies. Arriving at your Thanksgiving meal with an empty stomach will only lead to overeating. Workout...

Hey guys, this question has been playing on my mind ever since i started a couple of weeks ago- is it bad to have carbs late in the day? Okay first off i'll start by saying that i know it doesn't say do NOT do it in the book. Im just really torn! I've heard various different perspectives...

Hi Everyone, This is my second time around on BFL. The first time was last year; I lost 20 pounds in 4 weeks but quit due to a chest infection followed by hip injury. I am only in my first week now and I am noticing a pattern that happened last year. I feel going crazy for something sweet every...

I am 30 years old, 5'10" tall and weight 185 pounds I am looking into getting a decent dumbbell and weight training bench, but could use some tips on where to go and what to look for. My biggest problem will be getting up early and also getting all my meals and snacks organized 6...

Hi, I am new to Body For Life, I know about the program but haven't done it. I am wondering if there are suggestions for snacks/protein shakes that are available in local supermarkets, Costco, etc. that are as good as the EAS Myloplex. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks so much. Kathy

Does anyone have a good protein to add to oatmeal? I really love eating oatmeal in the morning. I added egg whites this morning (I read that some people do that on BFL) and I couldn't choke it down. Any suggestions? Thanks and good luck to all! Kathy

I am from Australia and decided to start my challenge 3 weeks ago (began 11th Feb 2011) in order to get my body in order for a big summer trip to Europe leaving May 31st. I am lucky in a sense as I have a trainer helping me through it as she knows the program well and is taking measurements etc. I am...

I have completed this program in the past and know for a fact it works. I am on Week 1 day 2 and have had a few set backs but more successes than set backs. I am eating better/healthier and consistently. I have worked out 2 days in a row (yeah for me) and I have reviewed my goals daily. I am looking...
